Brazos Belle Restaurant

Outstanding food and service in a 130 year old building that's been faithfully maintained. A true regional gem that's worth the drive from Houston. Anyone making the drive along 290 owes it to themselves to stop in, it's as good as you'll find within a hundred miles in either direction.
Caution: only open on weekends and only for dinner on Fridays and Saturdays, lunch on Sundays. Don't try to call, you won't get through - just show up. Super casual, no reservations required.

A corner of France in a tiny town, Burton, in the middle of Texas. Very nice people. A big truck stopped so I could take these pictures. The food in Brazos Belle is outstanding thanks to the talent of chef André, very nicely served, and at a reasonable price.

Constantly consistent wonderful food. Chef was trained in France working there and many other places including Houston. Now in Burton brings a fine dining menu to a beautiful old historical property. He makes his own bread, vinaigrette, and fantastic rustic pate. He uses some of his Mother's recipes. Every thing we have tried off the menu has been perfectly prepared and delicious. Our only complaint is they are only open 3 times per weekend! !

Steak was amazing and perfectly cooked to order. Good wine selection, and good family friendly staff. The chef comes around and personally checks on the food. Super impressed for such a small town. Remember to bring cash or check!! No credit!!

A hidden gem! Who would find themselves in Burton, Texas on a Saturday night? We would. And we’ll do it again. It was worth the trip- I promise. I had the tilapia etouffee and Jerod had the steak. Hanna is a top-notch server. She was attentive and ready to help. Both dishes were the best we’ve ever had in a restaurant. You won’t ever go to another steakhouse again. Also, the chef came out and greeted us- what a personal touch. It made us feel welcome and important. What an experience.

Wow amazing! The salads were spectacular, my friend had an authentic French dish and it was such comfort food! Wine was great too. Cute little place on the square and the chef came out to talk to us too - super kind and unassuming. Wait staff were great too. Charming venue!

Homemade bread and filet mignon that melts in your mouth! We finished it off with the richest, most decadent chocolate mousse and creamy cheesecake. The chef personally comes by to check if the food is to your liking. We loved it! Make sure to bring cash or check. They do not accept cards.

This place was amazing. Just ask Dave how good it was...especially the cheesecake! He wasn't up for sharing. Food is awesome. Sandy one of the owners was great. Delicious salmon and scampi and Chelsea our waitress was phenomenal

My husband and I made this our "fancy" dining experience on a weekend getaway. I absolutely LOVED that they knew what I was talking about when I requested a gluten-free entree. Great for celiacs. A warm atmosphere with GREAT food, we loved it. I got the salmon, and my husband got a perfectly cooked steak. We hope to go back and try more from the menu, and I will be sure to get dessert.

The peppercorn sauced steak was so delicious, I ate every bite! It was so tender and the flavor of the sauce (more like a gravy) was perfect! We'll drive from Austin to go there!!

Fancy french restaurant in small town. Thank god driving by and found the place. I still cannot imagine such a restaurant here. Great antique atmosphere and fine cuisine. Will try to come by often. Thanks again.

Friday and Saturday nights, Brazos Belle is the place to go. Country French cooking, Texas style. Homemade bread, butter, salad dressing can't be beat. Steak is the best. Compared to the best you'll find in Houston. Also if note are the pork medallions and salmon. Cash and checks only. Chef Andre does not accept credit cards.

We had a group of 8 people. Food was great, service lovely--we each had a great time. Our first time but certainly not our last. Well worth the drive.

Great comfort food, atmosphere and setting. Local peacocks walking on deck was a added plus. Must stop for anyone passing by as they are only open a few hours on weekends.

Was lucky to spot this place traveling by on 290. What a treasure from the historic setting to the homemade food that was delicious and reasonable with friendly, family service. My whole family loved it. Can't wait to come back!

Stopped in for a quick bite, and could not have been more pleased. Cash or check only, but service was phenomenal and food was delicious!! Small menu, but all good choices. Highly recommend!

A true gem - authentic French cuisine by Chef Andre Delacroix. It is our go to place for a date, Mother's Day, etc. Amazing to have such a restaurant in the small town of Burton.

Fantastic food and friendly service. Andre cooks everything himself with very fresh ingredients. It reminded me of my time in Italy where you can tell the quality of the food and the chef are worth another visit.

Great Restaurant! Go here every year on my trip to Burton. Great food all across the menu. I would seriously recommend the shrimp scampi.

One of the best restaurants in Texas. Steak is consistantly tender and tasty. I cannot recommend high enough.
